35、thropology that is devoted to the study of the human past, often focuses on the period before people began to keep written records. Archeologists study the origin, spread, and evolution of culture by examining the remains of past societies. They share the task of other kinds of anthropologists in th
36、at they are trying to understand human behavior. The difference is that their materials are generally the unwritten records of past societies. They cannot sit down with living members of those societies and talk about what they have found. They cannot even observe living people, but must interpret t
37、he material evidence left by people long dead. Many archeologists distinguish between prehistoric archeology, which is the study of extinct cultures that left no written records, and historic archeology, which is the investigation of those groups for whom there are written materials to accompany the
38、 archeological evidence. What, then, can archeology contribute to our understanding of human culture and social behavior? First, we can learn much about the technology of early peoples through their material remains, as well as through analysis of such aspects of their life style as what they ate. W
39、e can tell, for example, whether a particular group lived mainly by hunting or fishing or by farming. A second aspect of the life of early peoples that is revealed to us through archeology is their economic practices. For example, sometimes we find pottery or jewelry made from materials that are kno
40、wn to have been available only in distant places. This usually means that these items were not made at the site but were obtained through some other means - either by traveling to the place where they are available or by trading with other groups. If we put together a picture of the distribution of
41、such items over time, we can get an idea of the interactions among neighboring groups, and this in turn gives us clues about other aspects of culture that might have been borrowed or traded as well. Less evident than economics or technology, but still recognizable, is the political and social struct
42、ure of past cultures. We can assume a great deal about the way a city was organized from the layout of the buildings and the types of housing found there. For example, if we find a large temple in the center of an ancient city and it is surrounded by fairly large dwelling sites, while the buildings
43、on the outskirts of the settlement are smaller, we know that there were probably at least two classes of people and that the temple was at the center of the city not only in a physical sense but socially as well. Finally, archeological evidence can reveal a great deal about certain aspects of the re
44、ligious and spiritual life of ancient societies.(A) When we are fortunate enough to find temples or other religious structures, we can determine their importance and their influence on the society.(B) But in other areas, it is very hard to interpret the evidence.(C) Thus we know little about ancient
45、 peoples belief systems, or their values and morals, their feelings about spirits, and so forth.(D) Even when we find material objects that might suggest such beliefs, we cannot ask anyone to explain their meaning but must go on what we know about other aspects of that society and later societies th
46、at seem to be similar to it. In sum, archeology gives us a chance to look into the past of the human species. But it is like doing a jigsaw puzzle with most of the pieces missing, and without a picture of the finished puzzle on the box to work from. We have a few things that fit together; we can gue
47、ss about many others; but we really dont have enough to put it all together with complete confidence. Every new piece we find fits somewhere, though, and we never know when the next piece will give us the key to a whole new section of the puzzle of life in prehistoric times. That is the challenge an
48、d the excitement of archeology.35 The word extinct in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to_.（A）still living（B） very strange（C） no longer existing（D）extremely dangerous36 The word their in Paragraph 1 refers to（A）archeologists（B） human beings（C） anthropologists（D）past societies37 According to Paragra
49、ph 1, which of the following statements about archeology and other branches of anthropology is true?（A）Archeology and other branches of anthropology are totally different.（B） Archeology is more closely related to human behavior research.（C） Their difference mainly lies in their different research materials.（D）They have the same research areas about human behavior.38 We can benefit from archeological research in all the following ways EXCEPT that（A）archeology can tell us all about the religion early peoples believed in（B） we can know some aspects of primitive people
